W.WAT HOPKINS BROOKS SANDERS Hopkins, Sanders file for Carolinian Editor HOPKINS W. Wat Hopkins, who has filed for Editor of the 1971-72 WESTERN CAROLINIAN, believes students should know the "why'r" of the news in addition to the news, itself. The rising senior from Burlington, N.C. also feels the newspaper is the main voice of the students and should be the leader in voicing the concerns, needs, and rights of the students. "A capable editor is the most Imijorlant part of the newspaper because he decides policy," states Hopkins. "As closely as I've worked with the CAROLINIAN, I think I can see where it needs to be improved. I want to be editor so I can improve it and serve the students first." Concerning these improvements, Hopkins lists several specific changes he would make, if elected. These include more interpretative reporting (letting students know the 'why?* more than the 'what?*) more editorials on major issues concerning students, a new column called "Carolinian Forum" which would be rotating, meaning a new person writing it each week, at least one reporter for each beat (the S.G.A, Social Deans, Student Development Staff, Greeks, Student Organizations, News Bureau, Faculty Senate, and all academic schools), the return of the "Action Answer," a feature editor, and, hopefully, a workshop where students in journalism classes could work with the CAROLINIAN. Hopkins' experience in journalism includes a year as sports editor of the MEBANE EN- TERPRIZE, editor of a high school newspaper, co-sports editor of the CAROLINIAN for 1968 - 69, Managing editor for 1969-70, and Assoc ■ iate Editor for 1970-71. He also writes a column entitled "Strollings." He has accumulated 12 hours in journalism courses thus far at WCU. He feels the 1970-71 CAROLINIAN has not always been objective in its news reporting. He is also disappointed that more stories of student interest haven't been followed up and that the editorials were not stronger. Hopkins believes the groups on campus should have had more coverage in the CAROLINIAN. "Any newspaper should follow the rules of journalism," he concludes, "a paper can be and should be progressive and liberal within the bounds of legitimate journalism. That is the only way to run a paper." Hopkins' extracurricular activities include Lambda Chi Alpha fraternity, President of the Scribbler's Club, and he is a member of the Men's Leadership Honorary Society. The En= glish and Professional Writing major has a 3.02 quality point ratio. SANDERS Brooks Sanders, candidate for Editor of the WESTEKN CAROLINIAN believes the role of an editor is to guide the newspaper. According to Sanders, reporting the news factually and honestly Is Important to the newspaper, but more Important that this is the possibility for a newspaper to be a catalyst of change. The 23 year old English major defines this 'catalyst of change' as "that ingredient which sets the forces of progress in motion." Sanders first became interested in newspapers as a carrier for the DUttHAM SUN and the DURHAM MORNING HERALD. His additional experience in this field includes two years of writing a political column for the WESTERN CAROLINIAN entitled "Ragnar." He has also written news stories in connection with his position as Public Information Director for the Student Government Association. He lias served as press secretary for Ben Ragsdale of Virginia, who ran for the U.S. House of Representatives. Sanders worked in the various aspects of public relations including radio and television as well as newspapers. Stating that the CAROLINIAN needed to better serve the interests of the community, Sanders added that he would like to see a "livelier, more interesting newspaper on campus." He feel he might accomplish this goal, if elected, by running a good cartoon strip, eliminating typographical errors, and giving the news staff a general "face lifting." He states he would work closely with the news reporters to accomplish this goal. Before criticising the faults of the 1970-71 CAROLINIAN, Sanders emphasized that the current staff members of the CAROLINIAN were all his friends. Although an Independent himself, Sanders then added mat at times the CAROLINIAN has been unnecessarily "anti-Greek" and that occasionally this sentiment has not been very constructive. His second criticism was that at times, the CAROLINIAN has tailed to be very readible. H elected, Sanders plans to keep an "outside Cullowhee type" political column, as well as The Cat's Paw. He would also improve sports coverage, including minor sports on the sports pages. Sanders is a rising junior and has maintained a quality point ratio of 2.95. He was active in or^mizing the 1969 Moratorium as well as "Earth Day."
